Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin has expressed serious concern over the lack of streetlights on the road leading to the Jubilee House, calling it a major security risk.
Speaking on the floor of Parliament on Friday, March 14, 2025, Afenyo-Markin urged the government to act swiftly, emphasizing that such negligence was unacceptable in the heart of the city, especially near the seat of government.
“Mr. Speaker, it’s not good for the security of the presidency if the entire route leading to the Office of the President is so dark. This is in the heart of the city—it is worrying,” he stated.
He further called on the Minister for Greater Accra to appear before Parliament and provide assurances on the steps being taken to improve lighting in the area.
“I would plead that the leader of government business programs the Minister for Greater Accra to come and assure the House of the steps she is taking to address the situation.
“We need sufficient streetlights in the city, particularly so in the area where the seat of government is located,” Afenyo-Markin added.
